Mizushima, Taiga; Oka, Marina; Imada, Yasushi; Iida, Hiroki published the artcile< Low-Voltage-Driven Electrochemical Aerobic Oxygenation with Flavin Catalysis: Chemoselective Synthesis of Sulfoxides from Sulfides>, Name: 2-(Phenylthio)ethanol, the main research area is sulfoxide preparation chemoselective green chem electrochem; sulfide electrochem aerobic oxygenation flavin catalyst.
The chemoselective electrochem. oxygenation of sulfides RSR1 (R = Ph, Bu, pyridin-2-yl, etc.; R1 = Me, cyclopropyl, prop-2-en-1-yl, etc.) and dithiane to sulfoxides RS(O)R1 and 1,3-dithiane 1-oxide was performed using a biomimetic flavin catalyst that enables the activation of mol. oxygen under a low cathode potential. Diverse functional groups, including alcs., ketones, aldehydes, cyclopropane, carboxylic acids, pyridine, alkenes, and alkynes, are well tolerated under low-voltage electrolytic conditions.
Advanced Synthesis & Catalysis published new progress about Chemoselectivity. 699-12-7 belongs to class alcohols-buliding-blocks, and the molecular formula is C8H10OS, Name: 2-(Phenylthio)ethanol.
